Salle wrote that they were tired of hearing people who came to Sweden complain about a lack of future prospects, education, and jobs. They compared the complaints to what they believed to hear from certain youths who were creating chaos in France and claimed that Europe did not owe anyone a successful future. According to Salle, Europe offered freedom, education, democracy, and opportunities, but no guarantee of success. They wrote that those who wanted to create a future also needed to make an effort. To immigrants who described Europe as hopeless, Salle said they could return to their home countries. At the same time, they emphasized, as a contradiction, that people continued to risk their lives to get to Europe. #Framtid #Integration #Utbildning (translated)
